Chapter 532 - Hot Issue And Rumor
"Wait, your surname is Transcendent? Are you the daughter of Dylan Transcendent, the strongest devil on the Devil Continent?" Lynn widened her eyes as she remembered the surname of a particular Devil Emperor.
"Yup, that\'s me." Sylvia raised her thumb.
"I-I see... Nice to meet you, Devil Princess Sylvia." Lynn felt a little awkward and confused. She knew some information about this Devil Princess, but it was definitely not a half demonic dragon.
"Hehe, there\'s no need to be so formal with me." Sylvia waved her hand in front of her face. She then glanced at the tails on Yuuki\'s lower back and at Lynn\'s fluffy tail. "Oh, why do you only have one tail anyway? I thought the fox kin had the right number of tails to match their power level. I presume you\'re at Spirit-level?"
"Ah, that was also my question a while ago. This is my first time meeting one of the Snow Fox Clan. It still looks amazing to see my other kin from a different clan. Erm... You have seven tails, so you are at Saint-level?" Lynn looked at Yuuki with a curious gaze.
"That\'s predictable, right? What do you know about the Snow Fox Clan. I would appreciate it if you told me frankly." Yuuki folded her hands in her lap and put on a solemn expression.
"I\'m sorry, I don\'t know much about the Snow Fox Clan. However, I do know that they went into seclusion in a hidden village called Fevia Village about three hundred years ago for unknown reasons. As far as I know, my mother has encountered a snow fox in recent years." For some reason, Lynn felt like she just said the wrong thing. She only answered as per the request to reconcile the atmosphere.
"I see..." Yuuki heaved a subtle sigh.
"Nee, didn\'t Ely already tell you? It wouldn\'t be easy to find the Snow Fox Clan. All you need to do is ask for help, like what was offered to you a while ago." Sylvia put her arm around Yuuki\'s shoulder and gave a pat.
"I know. I\'ll ask her properly after this." Yuuki stole a few glances at Elysia and the other Goddesses. She then turned to the hand on her shoulder and pushed the devil girl away from her a little. "Don\'t put your hand there and you\'re so close. Give me some space. Your wings and tail are bothering me now."
"O, hey, I can\'t help it, you know? I tried my best not to spread my wings." Sylvia leaned back against the window with a pout.
"Is the Transcend Harvest Festival over? This city looks more tranquil than the last time we were here." Elysia glanced out the window.
She only saw the normal hustle and bustle of the city. Well, many beastkins were standing by the side of the road as if they were voluntarily making way for this horse carriage.
"Yes, the Transcend Harvest Festival ended on the day you last visited this city. And because of that too, I missed meeting all of you on that day." Lynn looked out the window then at everyone in the carriage.
"What made you want to meet us? Now you are with us. Is there anything particular on your side?" Elysia pointed her palm to Lynn.
"There\'s actually a lot of it, but I feel like it would be rude because you might be uncomfortable by my rambling." Lynn made a steeple of her fingers. She felt a little embarrassed to ask.
"Hmm…" Elysia gave Rhea a look, and they swapped positions at once. By the time she sat beside Lynn, she then tried to reassure. "You don\'t have to hesitate. You may be able to gain enlightenment you never imagined before on this occasion because there are four divine beings with us now."
"Th-then! Thank you very much. Actually--" Lynn then started blabbering like a little girl who was incredibly curious about so many things.
At that moment, she forgot her etiquette as a polite princess just to ask the insight of many things that her thought process and imagination couldn\'t answer.
Rhea and Elysia were the speakers who would answer Lynn\'s questions.
"So, there\'s a sky above that blue sky? A vast outer space called the universe? We only live on one planet out of all the celestial bodies out there? Ugh... Why do I feel so small and weak now? Don\'t we look like tiny particles when viewed from up there?" Lynn looked up at the sky with a complicated look.
She felt extremely surprised because of the information she had just received from Elysia.
"Mm, we are completely invisible because we are too small to be seen from the planet\'s atmosphere." Elysia smiled in amusement to see the expressions of some of the girls. She did not expect her simple science of astronomy could amaze them.
"Uhm, that was a great conversation. Nice to be able to exchange words with you, Elysia. You are surprisingly pleasant to talk to. However, please don\'t get me wrong." The smile on Lynn\'s face suddenly disappeared to look at the girl next to her.
"What is it?" Elysia tilted her head in surprise. She did not understand what had suddenly happened to Lynn.
"That doesn\'t mean I take you for granted. I don\'t allow you to snatch my mother away from me because of your presence. If you\'re trying to impress me by being nice to me for your purposes, then that\'s the wrong thing to do." Lynn pointed at Elysia\'s face.
"Ah." Elysia finally understood what had happened and what Lynn had in mind. It was a misunderstanding that just happened because Lynn failed to comprehend the whole current situation.
"Hey, you fox girl over there. Don\'t point your finger at Ely rudely. Do you think Ely will grab your mother\'s attention from you because she became your half-sister at your mother\'s request? You should be grateful that Ely was kind enought to accept the offer. You saw your mother\'s enthusiasm, right? Harshly speaking, Ely doesn\'t need your mother\'s attention and influence, but your mother desperately needs Ely\'s influence because your mother knows the best possible outcome." Sylvia rested her cheek against her hand. She told the harsh truth coldly.
"..." Elysia chose not to respond. She wanted to know Lynn\'s next response.
"Eh-huh? Did it happen like that? I thought it was, uuu... My mother got me wrong? She said that-" Lynn stuttered in embarrassment and awkwardness. She mistook Elysia for the villain.
"Hum, so your mother misled you, or did you fail to understand her point? Let me guess. She said something about me, and that alarmed you quite a lot? Anyway, let me get this straight to avoid any misunderstanding. Your mother seems to only see me as a bridge to get protection from my master. Even though she will treat me like her foster daughter, the reason behind her request is not sincere in my eyes. Does someone being treated as an object scare you that much, hmm?" Elysia leaned back in her seat and explained in a neutral tone.
"I, I\'m sorry. It was only me who misunderstood and accused you of being a threat. Please forgive my impudence to speak harshly to you. Please don\'t hate me." Lynn realized that Elysia\'s change in intonation was a bad omen for her. Therefore, she immediately apologized before it was too late and the problem dragged on.
"I accept your apology. With that being said, let\'s go back to the reason why we are here. Shouldn\'t you be telling us about this city and guiding us to places of interest?" Elysia smiled gently and answered in a softer voice.
"Well, please forgive me for getting carried away. Then, allow me to start with this plaza--" Lynn breathed a sigh of relief and pointed her palm towards the window and started explaining the points of interest like a tour guide.
The horse carriage continued at a leisurely pace to tour the city. Still, rumors and gossip arose rapidly among the civil society regarding that exclusive royal carriage.
"Hey, why is Her Majesty Empress\'s carriage being used to go around the city? It\'s really going around the city, right? Who\'s inside that? I could even see some hidden experts within a hundred meters of the horse carriage." The eagle-like man glanced around with a sharp gaze.
"Who knows, bro. However, I saw a dragon-like girl and Her Highness Princess there. Perhaps, an important messenger?" The tiger-like man put his arm around his bro\'s shoulder and whispered.
"What? For real? The one you mean is the dragon kin? What does she look like?" The eagle-like man widened his eyes in surprise.
"Uhm, I only caught a glimpse of her. However, I\'m sure that I saw it completely. She is a devilish beauty with a pair of reddish black horns on her head. She also has black wings, but slightly reddish. I saw her dragon red eyes and it made me tremble a little." The tiger-like man hugged him and trembled slightly to emphasize his statement.
"Wow, for real, yeah? Her Majesty Empress will have an alliance with those arrogant dragon kins? I hope this bodes well for us." The eagle-like man is quite dumbfounded, but he then has other plans.
"But, well, ahem! It would be wrong for me not to witness it live. I want to see a dragon kin beauty at least once, hoho." The eagle-like man flapped its wings and went to the top of a tall building to inspect it in person.
Sure enough, he could see the princess, a dragonkin beauty, and another fox girl. At that moment, the dragonkin beauty accidentally looked at him.
For some unknown reason, he was shaking a little because of a mysterious mental pressure. He then suddenly slipped and fell down.
The eagle-like man immediately stabilized himself in mid-air and landed on the ground with a slight gasp. "What was that? Dragon bloodline is strong and terrifying. It was just a glance and I was rendered helpless?"
"Yo, bro. I told you that, didn\'t I? Don\'t bother them in any way. There are more than ten experts guarding them from afar." The tiger-like man ran over to warn him.
After that, the two of them left. An incident had occurred due to a misunderstanding, but it immediately spread and became a hot issue and rumor.
"Her Majesty, I have come to report." A girl with black wings landed and kneeled on the floor.
An elegant and graceful lady just looked out the balcony expressionlessly. Still, a gleam of joy could be seen in her eyes.. After a few seconds, she then answered without even turning her head. "What do you want to report?"
